Hello Bismarck
cyan raft
Are you following as specific set of docs?
native badge
I am following this
https://stripe.com/docs/products-prices/manage-prices?dashboard-or-api=api#create-product

Okay using Products/Prices is only compatible with Stripe Checkout if you are taking one-time payments.
Are you familiar with Stripe Checkout?
native badge
Yes so it will be a 1 time payment
And no I am not familiar. I have watched a couple tutorials but haven't implemented yet
cyan raft
Okay well for Checkout the doc you want to look at for how to work with multiple currencies is: https://stripe.com/docs/payments/checkout/present-local-currencies
There are basically two options, where you either use Automatic currency conversion or you create Multi-curency Prices.

Ok I am a bit confused
cyan raft
I'd recommend taking a read through that doc and then circling back if you have specific questions
Sure, what are you confused about
native badge
I understand I can create multiple products
In my stripe account
For each product I attach a number of currencies.
That way it is easier for a cx to chose their currency in checkout profile
Does that make sense?
cyan raft
Kind of
What you really want to do is create a Price with multiple currencies
Then when your customer goes to the Checkout Session we will localize based on their location to show the correct currency

Ahh I see I see.
But in my situation I want to create a product that has 2 currencies. USD and NGN
So basically when an admin creates a product, I store the details in my DB and also stripe product details.
When a cx add items to their cart, the pricing would be in either USD or NGN.
cyan raft
Sure

When they are in checkout, the currency would be in their choice and since I already created the products in my stripe account, stripe already knows the currency. All it has to do is sum up (number of items * price)
native badge
Sure
Alright so this can be achieved. Is there any reference examples to creating a product with multiple currencies?
cyan raft
You are saying that when you redirect your customer to Checkout you are going to have your customer already decide which currency they want to pay in?
Or you want it to automatically present their local currency?
native badge
You are saying that when you redirect your customer to Checkout you are going to...
Correct
cyan raft
Okay well that's even easier. You just create multiple Prices (https://stripe.com/docs/products-prices/manage-prices?dashboard-or-api=api#create-price)... one for each different currency

Ok thank you for your help. Looks like my request can be handled. Is there a link to details for java apis?
I mean a reference docs?
cyan raft
Each of the code snippets in the docs has a Java snippet
To look at the different parameters available you would look at the API Reference: https://stripe.com/docs/api/products/create?lang=java

Not exactly what I was looking for but I think I got my question answered
Thank you
cyan raft
Sure
